Nienke introduced Beth to Ann Johnston's DVD, Color by Accident. Beth got all excited and told me it was worth a semester in college. So I watched it. She was right! I had no idea how little I knew about dyeing! Now I know why Nancy Crow recommended Ann's Color by Accident when a student at the Barn asked Nancy for a recommendation. I immediately bought the pure 14 colors from Prochem and started trying Ann's dyeing techniques.
In fact, I was so inspired by the Color by Accident DVD that I am going to be a Guest Artist for February. I am going to be sharing some of what I learned so far and trying more of Ann's techniques. Two of my friends and past Resident Artists on the Fire blog, Beth Schnellenberger and Laura McGrath, are joining me.
I hope you will join us too! If you love Ann Johnston and want to dye with us in February, contact me at Quiltordye@ftml.net and we'll make plans!
